Father's Day Comfort


We have eaten here before with our son, so decided to go for it again in Richmond, Virginia on the way home from the beach. We both had omelets. Mine came with cheese grits which I let my husband eat. He had a different side. We both had a beer. Later a pimento appetizer was my husband's choice for his Father's Day food fanfare.

Downtown Richmond, Virginia really needs re-investments and renovations as it is slowly dying.  This small, excellent restaurant is brave but busy. That is a good sign.

Trip to Eastern Shore, Virginia today

Takes a while to get back in the groove of blogging. I know we will see what I consider the ugliest building designed, today, on our road trip to Chincoteague, Virginia. It is the Hampton Coliseum in Hampton, Virginia and can be viewed from I-64.

Uggh!
